The Pirates are Coming!!

It’s that time of year again—time for the Bald Head Island Pirate Festival!

Be here July 31st weekend as pirates arrive by tall ship and take over the island for several days of unbridled revelry. Events include an island takeover by the pirate ship Meka, a pirate party in the harbor, gun powder demonstrations and sword fighting, grub ship, duck race, pirate pancake breakfast, pirate games, crafts and an island-wide treasure hunt with proceeds benefiting the Old Baldy Foundation. It’s sure to be a weekend of pirates, history and fun for everyone – pirates included!

Tickets are on sale now and a complete schedule of events is available at the Old Baldy Foundation’s website.
